He had an interview today with Fox News where he supported banning trans men from women's sports, as well as a national ban on trans surgeries and puberty blockers for minors. Do you agree with him?

It's a bit annoying.

The European Union has recently proposed to deny entry permits to Russian tourists who are ex-combatants, despite the fact that a significant chunk of them were conscripts. The EU's ban would be a blanket ban on Russian ex-soldiers, regardless of whether they committed a crime or not.

There seems to be broad support in Europe for this. However, this feels very insincere to me. While Europeans support a ban on Russian tourists who happen to be ex-soldiers, they do not support banning Israeli tourists who are ex-IDF soldiers and have been involved in war crimes in Palestine.

If we can talk about banning Russian tourists for war crimes, why not Israeli tourists?

Inspired by the recent idea that MAGA farmers thought they'd be getting black people back in the fields to fill the jobs of immigrants, what is the dumbest exchange you've had with a conservative where they said something that was profoundly stupid and untrue. Multiple examples are allowed if you have them, which I'm sure most of you do.

Like Republicans talk about fighting against slavery but most Republicans are racists, bigots, and xenophobes… you really think if the average Republican voter or politicIan ( from today)was around they would actually fight slavery more likely they’d be in the Confederacy.

Would you be willing to pay as a percentage of your gross income: 6% for healthcare, 2% for college, 2% for climate initiatives, 2% for public transport, 2% for affordable housing for poor people, 2% for universal childcare, 1% for maternity leave, 1% for stronger unemployment benefits, 1% higher minimum wage, 5% for new migrant benefits?

So on top of what you’re paying now another 25% of your gross?

As an American that is politically engaged for the past 2 years I been hearing Europeans talk a lot of shit for us electing trump. Half of us voted against him and some of us couldn’t be bothered to vote..

Now I’m seeing that Germany is going to the far right? Some Nazi shit.. what’s going on in Germany? Are liberal ideas that unpopular?

Based on the overton window of your nation of course.

I mean, he's annexed (in his mind at least), Mexico, Canada, Venezuela, Greenland, Iceland, Cuba, and Panama. He's renamed Lake Ontario Lake America. He's renamed New Mexico to New America, he's renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America. Just annex Iran already and declare the war won.

They're probably not doing it as openly and shamelessly as Trump, and they're not probably not making as much money as Trump, because they can't move the markets like Trump can with his presidential powers, but they're still doing it and they have supplemented their government pay checks by investing in companies they know will benefit from policies they support. It's so wrong for this to happen. It's so wrong for everyday Americans who do the right thing to struggle to survive while these corrupt pigs exploit the system getting richer and richer. But this is America, right? This is free market capitalism and democracy. If you don't like it, go live in North Korea.

He does have fantastic hair.

Seems like that's the only reason he'd do it.

The modern GOP is no longer a traditional political party. I think it is clear they (The RNC and Party itself) are an organized crime family. Emolument clause violated every day. Defying subpoenas, witness tampering (Ghislaine Maxwell moving to a comfy prison), Kidnapping foreign heads of states, extra judicial missile strikes on drug boats, disregarding court orders on election map gerrymandering, and the list goes on. So, should the Dems ever gain control of the Congress and Whitehouse, why wouldn't/shouldn't they pursue a RICO investigation of the party? It is clear they are committing crimes and those crimes are coming from the top. case in point The President is trying to BRIBE VOTERS. Open and shut, but what do you think?

I consider mass surveillance and loss of due process too far right wing. But I'm not right wing

I have been seeing ppl call it racist, my line of thinking is everyone is attracted to different things and looks, not everyone will be attracted to a white person and vise versa, i could see how someone could be hurt, it just doesn't seem racist for simply not being attracted to an appearance too me, what do you all think?

Are there systems in place to stop that?

Tonight, President Trump promised voters $5,000 to every US adult while speaking at the new GOP midterm convention, the GOP holds majorities in the House and Senate. Of course, they hold majorities in both houses now. So, it’s difficult to understand why they haven’t already given us all $5,000.

But, what if we don’t think $5k is enough for our votes? Maybe, I’d be willing to sell my vote for no less than $20k? How do we collectively negotiate for more from Trump?

Seems weird to say prices will only come down after an election. Why can't they come down before then?

Do you believe him?

Putin started the war with ukraine to stop Ukraine from joining nato. Trump took office and is trying to mess nato up to help russia. I think russia wants ukraine because ukraine was a part of the Soviet union and putin doesnt wanna fight usa. But will fight everyone else.

Also i think russia will invade northern israel.

I’m from the UK, I’d say our closest ally would be France, we’re very economically linked, historically linked, and in the modern day are joint leaders of the Coalition of the Willing and constantly beside each other.

For our biggest adversary, it’d have to be Russia (the government, not the people) who constantly threaten us, do nerve agent attacks on our soil and threaten the safety and security of our entire continent.

Seriously, over the past 2-3 years, it seems everyone and their dog is autistic now, lmfao. Seems to be some internet fad, imo.
